Satellite cell activation was similar between groups in the untrained state but showed a trend toward greater increases with MIS after RET.
There may be potential benefits of multi-ingredient supplementation on satellite cell activation post-exercise.

SC activation was similar between groups for all fiber types in the untrained state but showed a trend toward greater increases with MIS after RET (ES = 0.70).

- Multi-ingredient supplementation (MIS) resulted in a greater increase in type II fiber cross-sectional area (fCSA) following 10 weeks of resistance exercise training (RET) compared to collagen supplementation (COL) (effect size = 0.89).Strong
- Myonuclear accretion and satellite cell (SC) content did not significantly differ between the MIS and COL groups after 10 weeks of RET.Strong
